I never expected...

I never expected to make it to high school. As a young child it always seemed like this weird dream or fantasy. When your younger you see movies about teenagers or high schoolers in general. It is truly a surreal moment your first day of high school, you just feel so old but at the same time you still feel like a child, it almost feels like a child in a high school movie but this time it's real and you're there in the moment. I never to still feel like a young child by the time I made it to high school, but i think deep most high schoolers still feel young.
